12Ghosts

12Ghosts is a collection of over 90 Windows extensions, neatly packaged into one program. They can be run simultaneously or individually, as you require.

They help to speed up/automate repetitive tasks, or add functionality to your PC. The most important tools, or 'ghosts', are as follows:

Wash is used to erase your tracks in web browsers, Windows and applications. It is very thorough, and can be automated to run at regular intervals.

Backup lets you back up file(s)/folder(s) and the registry at set intervals.

QuickStart lets you add as many tools, applications and documents as you wish to a tray icon, enabling you to launch them more quickly.

Timer is a powerful calendar (including alarms) for keeping track of appointments, and can be used to run applications at specific times.

Other Ghosts include a system tray clock, atomic clock synchronisation, quick desktop access, a notepad, a tool for saving various desktop layouts, and a SetColor tool for adjusting desktop icon text colours to match wallpaper.
